New Features:
Replays:
- View and analyze previous games! Compatible with Circular, Hexagonal, and Triangular Chess! (currently requires the new "automatically saved replays" setting to be enabled, which it is by default)
New Settings Menu:
- A new, cleaner settings menu, with music and sfx volume settings. Now also accessible from the Escape menu.
Asymmetrical Clocks:
- In private lobbies, players can now check the "Separate Clocks" box to adjust each color's clocks separately.
Lag Compensation:
- The in-game clock now accounts for server latency to make sure both players are on an even playing-field anywhere in the world.
Bug Fixes:
-
Fixed a rare bug that would allow a player to make 3 moves in a row. (finally)
-
The "Game Disbanded" prompt will no longer show up when the user starts a bot game while also searching for a public/private match.
-
When a match is disbanded, the other player no longer be booted back to the main menu.
Other Changes:
- Added an initial entry to the Move Log, so that the starting position can be viewed (in-game and in replays)
Note: I am currently working on overhauling the game's netcode. Some of these changes have already been partially implemented, but they will cause occasional visual bugs and hiccups on the main menu. If anything unusual occurs - such as being placed in an empty, non-functioning Private Lobby - hitting the Escape key, then pressing "Main Menu" (even while already in the main menu) should reset the menu.
